The landscape of Wiltshire is an ancient one. The burial mounds of kings and chieftains overlook the land; trackways that are millennia old wind through lonely places; the defensive ditches of forts can be seen on the brows of many hills. Overshadowing all are the ancient monuments of Avebury and Stonehenge and the awe-inspiring man-made mound of Silbury Hill. It's no wonder that those who succeeded the vanished races who built this landscape came to regard these works with a superstitious reverence. Surely, such structures could only have been built by giants or wizards; the magnificent burial mounds must cover the earthly bodies of legendary beings - or do they hide the entrance to the underworld? And only the Devil could have been capable of carrying such large, heavy stones. This volume covers the folklore of round barrows, long barrows, barrow hills, earthworks, standing stones and henges. Illustrated with maps and black and white photographs. -

The Celtic Way: Ian Bradley
$15.00A fascinating study of the native Christian faith of the British Isles which captures the essence of Celtic Christianity, its origins and its development, its continuing legacy and recent revival.

The Celtic knot, with its endlessly interweaving and intertwining patterns is believed to be the key to understanding Celtic Christianity. The Celtic Way is recognised as the most authoritative, accessible and well-balanced introduction to the native Christian faith of the British Isles. -

Well-known Jungian analyst Bani Shorter examines how women are initiated into becoming themselves. In former times transitions from one stage of life to another were prepared for and marked by ritual initiation; in modern times this necessity has been overlooked and women's natural development is being made more difficult as a consequence. Through working in close therapeutic relationship with women, Shorter found that women instinctively create rituals when faced with challenges and crises, to mark their journey towards maturation, wholeness and meaning. In this process they discover who they are and recognise dimensions of themselves previously repressed or unrecognised. -

The Celtic approach to mysticism is holistic, with little distinction made between the sacred and the secular, or between the physical world and the spiritual.

Celtic mysticism is an approach to life and this book brings the Celtic world - its histories and stories - into a modern context. The important myths and the Celts' feeling for their world is explored and explained and there are exercises to increase your awareness of the power of nature and its holistic character as well as using meditation and mind-journeying to meet Celtic archetypes. -

A real treasure chest of a book - one to dip into for wisdom from across the ages, from all ages and professions, from literary figures to world leaders. There really is something for every human condition and for everyone: Mark Twain...I am an old man and have known a great many troubles, but most of them never happened. Or perhaps Honoré de Balzac: There is no such thing as a great talent without great will-power. And here's John Wesley in a wry moment: Some people have just enough religion to make them uncomfortable. Abraham Lincoln knew what he was talking about when he said: Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power. And Abigail Van Buren, famous agony aunt, observed: People who fight fire with fire, usually end up with ashes. -
